Did anyone catch the thread that Mexico has given a massive $100,000 for relief of the tsunami victims?

We have corresponded before IW. I have shared personal information with you in an attempt to understand your opinion and make my position clear. I have agreed with some of your writing and I honestly appreciate the posts you have directed to me. I believe that many who disagree with my opinion are motivated by racism. I also believe that many who disagree with me are motivated by misguided principles. I do not mean to be insulting. I expect, or rather I hope, you believe I disagree with you because I am ignorant, but not evil. With this in mind I question your post to me.

What does tsunami relief have to do with illegal immigration? My first thought is you expect a reaction like "I am supposed to hate Mexican people because the Mexican government is corrupt." What is your point? Are you just whimsically posting anything that comes to mind in an effort to be irreverent?

Without even knowing what Mexico has pledged to the tsunami relief I can defend a $100,000 donation with the self-evident truth that Mexico has its own problems and owes Asia nothing. I don't think Mexico has the unlimited tax dollars that America possesses, but I really don't want to get into a fight about how much tax payer funded largess the US owes the rest of the world.

Please let me know if I am misreading your post.

And, Mexicans in the USA have done what? I am amazed that Mexico itself is able to do any such thing. The giving of our own people, or those who live with us, is far more important.
